Riverdale Season 5 Time-Jumps Its Previews with "Graduation" Look

Okay, The CW and EP Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, You're not the only ones who can engage in a little screwing around with the timeline. With Riverdale kicking off its fifth season this past week with the first of a three-episode mini-arc wrapping up senior year for Archie (KJ Apa), Betty (Lili Reinhart), Jughead (Cole Sprouse), Veronica (Camila Mendes), Toni (Vanessa Morgan), Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch), viewers finally got a chance to check out the COVID-delayed senior prom. But now we're looking ahead an extra week- past this week's second episode of the season, "Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Preppy Murders" and towards their "Graduation" (set to air Wednesday, February 3) with a set of official preview images that we offer without commentary (we'll have that as it gets closer) to help fuel your dumpster fires of speculation.
